⚠️ Important Notice
Sigma is not supported in EBO 2022 and later.
To continue supporting Sigma devices, you can implement a multi-version system:
- Keep Enterprise Servers with Sigma devices on Building Operation 3.2.
- Add a Building Operation 2022 or later Enterprise Central
- Upgrade the rest of the system to Building Operation 2022 or later.
You will not be able to upgrade EcoStruxure Building Operation servers that contain unsupported protocols, objects, or devices. Attempting to do so will result in failed upgrades or loss of functionality.
